End of Summer Corn and Arugula Salad

This salad is the epitome of all that is lovely about a late summer meal. The sweetness of grilled corn is the perfect foil for the pepper bite of arugula. Combined with a few sweet late season radishes, a bit of gorgonzola, and a creamy, peppery dressing, and you have a salad with some serious bite.
